How to know Grammar Forms Identification:-

Do you
know the names of these grammar forms?

Identifying grammar forms using authentic materials is a great way to
practice your understanding English. You can do this by getting a copy of a
magazine, newspaper, or print off a page from the internet. Underline grammar
constructions you know and identify them. You can even use colored pens
to underline different parts of speech, or identify phrasal
verbs, etc. To help you understand the idea, here's a short tale about a
biking race.

Forms Identification - Quiz

Identify the grammar forms using the numbers of the selection below in italics.
This is a challenging quiz, so I've provided the answers below the grammar
forms you'll need to identify. Try to identify each form before referring to
the answers!

Have you ever been so excited
(1) that you almost lost your breakfast? That’s how I felt last week when I
participated in a mountain-biking race near Mt. Hood
(2). The trail was twenty-six miles long through some of the forest which borders on the town of Hood River (3). I rarely
(4) take part in races, but I decided that this race was for
me (5). My friend and I left early in the morning to make sure we
got to the race on time. We’ve been late for races before, so
we didn’t want to miss out this time (6).

Racing (7) is a great way to test your
skills against other amateur riders (8) from around the area, and
this race was no exception. There were young dudes with the latest bikes that
were more expensive (9) than my car! Even
though it was windy and cold, (10) the riders were at the starting
line ready to go at eight a.m. I started out by riding as hard as I could
(11) because I thought I could get out in front of the competition.
Unfortunately, I drink (12) too much beer and
the night before the race was no exception. I started to feel my hangover
giving me a pounding (13) headache, so I
slowed down and let (14) some of the others pass me. Soon, I was at the back of
the group wishing I hadn’t drunk (15) so much the
night before. After we had ridden for two hours
(16), it was clear I wasn’t going to win. I told myself (17)
not to worry, so I just enjoyed the ride and came in last place. It didn’t
really matter.
